$6 bargain bin at Super Cheap Auto! :D
Haha what a bargain!
ANYTHING best motoring is excellent!
Quite a few Hondas in it too. Obviously the Civic Type R but they put it up against NSX, Integra, Civic.
Then in the Touge there is EK9 Civic and 2x S2000, makes for awesome watching. It's playing right now at work! I use it as my "test" movie to make sure DVD drives can read properly and play video. Heh. :)

I just watch it for free on youtube, I guess it saved me $6.
Actually Brett and I filmed our own 'Touge' in my EM1 out his way. Best videos ever!
Of course, for private viewing only, much like home-made porn :-P
Do want to see. Must give me a copy.
Home made touge that is, not porn. :thumbdwn:

What you missed out on today Timmy! I called him for a hand but he was too wussy. Doesn't matter we got it in the end! Tim, you said you had enough working on cars today... you do something this morning? What'd you do?
Underneath the motorhome and ready to go up:

Up in place, steady does it:

All bolts started, finally! Was an absolute pain to get lined up right. Probs half hour of stuffing around trying to budge a few mm here and there!
http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/k...291024x768.jpg
Working under here, can see my dad's leg:
http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/k...311024x768.jpg
Wait for it, wait for it... Ready for road trip?
http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/k...321024x768.jpg
Oh BTW this is my dad's motorhome. Him and mum have already spent a few years going around Australia.
And NOW we are upgrading from 3spd to 4spd auto gearbox! LOL
haha,
yeah i was re aligning the hood, front bumper n the doors to give it a cleaner look. but now i need to replace the door hinges because there sagging an not lining up to the door striker also need to get a few other bit n pieces.
Ah sounds like you're on a mission. Keep at it eh. :thumbsup:
S2000 tranny install? ;)
Haha... realistically that gearbox is probably half the length of an S2000! It was huge eh.
Grand Villa!
EPIC.
Good job Father and Son :)
Great Avatar Timmy!
Yeah EPIC alright! You guys should check it out sometime.
And if you happen to be rich (which I am not) I think he is selling for about $150,000 or so. He spent 2 months in America zig-zagging across the country side before he finally decided on purchasing this one. Imported it to Australia. Converted to RHD himself. Rebuilt the V8. Took 2.5 years to go around Australia with mum on a working holiday. And he says there is so much more of Australia that he wanted to check out, he could easily spend another 2.5 years on the road again. Way to go I reckon.

+1 for grebe definition plz Brett.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grebe
Thats a Grebe :)
Yes Mr Smarty Pants, but how do you know that's the type of Grebe he ran over? It looks like if he ran over that thing, it wouldn't be just a leg he would be breaking...
There are lots of different looking grebes.
Click here for the proper look of a grebe
I clicky'd. LOL

Brett we could be Civic sedan clan brothers! It looks quite nice to me.
Do it Troy!!!!
Yeah sure! Loan me a few grand will ya!
But seriously something about it looks really nice. I love the hatch in that shape but generally not the sedans... But the lip on the boot seems to work really well. What do you guys think of it?
Discuss.
The EG sedan is one of the best sedan shapes ever. Lol. Lexus copied it with their is300.
Yes I'm a tad biased, but then again I owned one for 2 1/2 years, and it was SOO roomy inside. Plus, I've heard the sedan is only ~30kg heavier than the hatch.
Combined with a B18c and some good suspension it wouXld be an absolutely wicked car to drive! Plus, you'd still have tonnes of room in the back for the booster seats ;)
I present to you:
Lexus is300
http://image.importtuner.com/f/27470...+side_view.jpg
Honda Civic Sedan ;)
http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...eEeVpn4EAj&t=1
if your a family man and still wanna have fun this is the car to get!
The IS200 is one of my all-time favourites! IS300 not quite as good in my opinion.
Family man all the way! Booster seats? Not yet, still got the proper baby seats for all.
Yup! But you get my point :)
I wouldn't suggest either IMO.
is200 is notoriously under-powered and 300 only came out in auto.
Can't compare to 3-series. 325i+ are all better value for $$$ and are much better overall. Das Gut.
IS200 is definitely lacking in power. My mum used to have one (it was also auto). But as a car for cruising I thought it was great, handled quite well also.
So what would you suggest Mike? EM1? :D
Like I said before, BMW 3 series (E46).Quote:

The is200 is a great handler, like u said. I hate the instrument cluster though, too busy and hard to read. Crap hard interior plastics I thought too. Why buy a Lexus when you can have a bimmer?
You speak copius amount of truth there Mike.
I'm loving the Best Motoring video of the Bimmer with the F20c in it :D
my gramps had a beemer. Arent they really expensive to maintain and fix?
A Beemer is a motorbike just so you know Jer :P
LOL! i thought you guys were talkin about a bmw car haha
Yeah, we are lol.
Bimmer = BMW car
Beemer = BMW bike
:)
my goodness. ive never heard the difference of those before, ive only ever heard beemer which was refering to the car... arghh who cares!!! never mind me lol
Is that the one with the Japanese cowgirl in it? You can see up her skirt in that vid.Quote:
